Parking Brake Won't Hold
Had the message "Parking Brake Won't Hold" pop up a couple of times recently when parking on hills. Hills are steep but not massively so. Car is only 6 months old, auto AWD.
I might add it does seem to hold ok . Anyone else had a similar problem? Thanks John |
Afternoon , at 6 months old , I would ring the dealer . Ask if any software updates are available / required . I would also ask that they link up Vida/dice to check for any error codes & manually operate the EPB motors while it is plugged in via the software . I have used my Snap-on device to work the motors on & off on several Vauxhall's , a couple of of BMw's & countless bloody french cars .
The worst culprits were those that spent most time parked up in salty damp environments ( Oh , I do like to be beside the seaside ........ honest ! ) it is possible a sensor "thinks " it detects movement & triggers the message so again , get any codes read |
Took car to dealer.
Turns out both rear brake calipers were leaking ! They were replaced under warranty. Car is 6 months old and done 3000miles!! Slightly worrying!! Thanks for the response John |
Message has reappeared, obviously wasn't the calipers!
Dealer is nonplussed and has emailed Volvo. Anyone else had this? Thanks |
